Method for estimating tyre cornering stiffness from basic tyre information
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper proposes a simple mathematical tyre model that estimates tyre cornering stiffness. The model is derived by considering the tyre to be a combination of two independent systems. The sidewalls are assumed to be negligibly stiff in the lateral direction, and hence their influence on the lateral dynamics of the tyre will be ignored. The belt and tread area of the tyre will be considered to be an homogeneous uniform band, and its stiffness will be estimated with reference to measured tyre data. The resulting model is estimated to yield cornering stiffness values within about 30 per cent of the actual measured values.

Tyre Friction Potential Estimation by Aligning Torque and Lateral Force Information
The modern active systems and the advanced driver assistance systems have certainly reduced the amount of accidents. However these systems are still lacking one major information, which is the friction between the tyre-road interface. The performance of these systems could be enhanced substantially if this information was known. Rather simple methods can be used to determine the friction coeffi...
متن کاملFriction and camber influences on the static stiffness properties of a racing tyre
Investigation of the stationary load-deflection behaviour of tyres reveals many details of the structure and the rubber to road friction properties. These characteristics are fundamental to the understanding of the behaviour of both the stationary and the rolling tyre. In connection with racing, tyre static stiffness characteristics are of interest as they reflect on the controllability of the ...
متن کاملReal-time estimation of aquaplaning with an optical tyre sensor
Future active safety systems will require more accurate information about the state of a vehicle and the operating conditions of an individual tyre. Aquaplaning is a dangerous situation in which the contact between the tyre and the road is partially or completely lost. In this paper, the movements of the inner liner of the tyre during aquaplaning are measured optically and exploited to estimate...
متن کاملAn improved Magic Formula/Swift tyre model that can handle inflation pressure changes
This paper describes extensions to the widely used TNO MF-Tyre 5.2 Magic Formula tyre model. The Magic Formula itself has been adapted to cope with large camber angles and inflation pressure changes. In addition the description of the rolling resistance has been improved. Modelling of the tyre dynamics has been changed to allow a seamless and consistent switch from simple first order relaxation...
متن کاملPredicting Aquaplaning Performance from Tyre Profile Images with Machine Learning
The tread of a tyre consists of a profile (pattern of grooves, sipes, and blocks) mainly designed to improve wet performance and to inhibit aquaplaning by providing a conduit for water to be expelled underneath the tyre as it makes contact with the road surface. Testing different tread profile designs is time consuming, as it requires fabrication of a tyre set using the tread profile, followed ...
